"Ray" Movie Synopsis: Born in a poor town in Georgia, Ray Charles went blind at the age of seven shortly after witnessing his younger brother's accidental death.

"Ray" Movie Review
Jamie Foxx was good in "Collateral" but he's great in "Ray." Foxx's performance as the legendary Ray Charles deserves a mention come Oscar time. In fact, up to this point in the year, Foxx is just about the only actor who appears to be a shoe-in for an Academy Award nomination. Is the movie as good as Foxx's performance? Here's my take on the Ray Charles biopic, directed by Taylor Hackford.
